We had a very relaxing time in this home, the weather wasn't great so we didn't get to enjoy the water or shoreline. The hot tub was awesome with a view of the lake; excellent for watching the rain come in. The house was very clean and welcoming. There are so many areas to gather, perfect for families of all ages. We would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Trent Stadheim

Host profile image

I’m a born and raised South Dakota boy, and while work has pulled me away, my heart is still back home. Last year, my wife and I bought what I consider my dream home on my favorite lake development near Watertown—Air Haven. I know the lakes around here well, and in my opinion, this spot is hands down the best place to relax and enjoy lake life.

My parents live just down the road and help take care of the place. I grew up fishing, skiing, wakeboarding, and jet skiing on Lake Pelican. If you're local, you know Kampeska has gotten a bit wild, and you also know the south side of both lakes is where you'll find calm water most summer days. There's nothing better than sipping coffee on the dock in the morning or enjoying a sunset with a cold drink in hand. I hope you love it here as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and lakefront charm. Nestled on a quiet dead-end road with 2 acres of space, it offers a peaceful, secluded atmosphere while still being just minutes from local bars, restaurants, shopping, and the interstate. The property sits right on the lake with a sandy beach, making it feel like your own private waterfront retreat. The surrounding area features unique touches like a private grass runway across the road and scenic meadows perfect for walking and exploring, adding to the one-of-a-kind experience.

What makes this property unique

Our property is truly one-of-a-kind for a vacation getaway. Located right on the lake with a rare sandy beach, it provides the perfect setting for relaxation and fun. The recently remodeled home features beautiful beach-themed décor and thoughtful design throughout. With 3,000 square feet of space, it comfortably accommodates large family groups while offering multiple living areas so everyone can spread out and enjoy their own space. Plus, it’s just a short trip to town, giving you the best of both peaceful lake life and local convenience.
